Colonial Privileges for Thee?
Regarding Allysia Finley's 'How Progressive Government Set the Stage for the L.A. Riots' (Life Science, June 16): One of the recent progressive talking points has been that pro-immigration uprisings are acceptable because California and other southwestern states were 'originally Mexican land.' Never mind that the Mexicans were only on that land because they also colonized, displacing and dispossessing Native Americans themselves. Apparently leftwing radicals think such an inconvenient truth can be overlooked and forgiven. This Brit wants to know: Come the next Democratic administration, will the party maintain that principle by arranging for the cession of the 13 colonies back to the U.K.? Or do some colonial empires get privileges over others?

Donald Trump Jr. appears to suggest 'rooftop Koreans' should shoot protestors
[Source] Korean Americans in Los Angeles are condemning Donald Trump Jr. for posting a contentious image that references their community's experience during the 1992 riots amid ongoing immigration protests. About the meme: Trump Jr. posted the controversial photo showing an armed man on a rooftop with the caption 'Make Rooftop Koreans Great Again!' on social media Sunday night. It referenced Korean shop owners who defended their businesses with firearms during the 1992 LA riots after police forces withdrew from certain areas. Photojournalist Hyungwon Kang, who took the original photograph, said it was used without permission and demanded Trump Jr. to take it down, noting that it was being used 'out of context.' What they're saying: The Korean American Federation of Los Angeles denounced the post as demonstrating 'poor judgment' and warned that Trump Jr.'s actions 'could pose serious risks during this tense period.' The group further urged that 'the past trauma of the Korean people be never, ever exploited for any purpose.' Kang also told Reuters that the current situation with adequate police protection 'is not even remotely similar to the dire situation for Korean Americans of those dark hours during the 1992 LA Riots.'

California Governor Gavin Newsom Using Fight Against Trump Over LA Riots To Bolster 2028 Battle?
California Governor Gavin Newsom Using Fight Against Trump Over LA Riots To Bolster 2028 Battle? President Donald Trump's recent order to deploy thousands of National Guard troops and Marines to Los Angeles marks a stark escalation in his ongoing political battle against California's Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom. This move is not merely about immigration enforcement - it is a calculated political gambit designed to energize Trump's base by exploiting immigration as a potent issue. Simultaneously, Trump is also undermining a key Democratic foil in a deeply blue state. n18oc_world n18oc_crux
